Laser illumination apparatus toy system

ABSTRACT

The invention relates to a laser illumination lamp as a novelty toy using a laser beam pattern that is contained in a polygon sphere such as a truncated rhombic dodecahedron to enable positioning the projection. The above system provides a unique utility shape for a small visual entertainment system toy that operates on batteries as well as AC adapter output for a night light.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

The present invention relates to a laser illumination lamp toy as a polygon sphere that produces a laser pattern projection and more specifically as a truncated rhombic dodecahedron casing with a laser pattern projection that enables positioning the projection by the user simply by the intrinsic character of the casing utility.

Laser matrix diffractions are well known prior art and are available with laser pointers. Directing the projection is simply requiring the user to hold the device in their hand and point. While prior art exists for the purchase of laser pointers with matrix diffraction pattern capability systems there is no lamp toy system available that can produce a laser matrix pattern projection by simply using the intrinsic utility of the body of the toy for positioning the projection. Furthermore, there has not been a simplification of the use of the well known art for a battery operated toy system with AC/DC adapter as a lamp.

In this respect, the Laser illumination Apparatus Toy System invention substantially departs from the conventional design of the modern day purchasable system prior art and in doing so provides an inexpensive new entertainment system toy. Furthermore, the operation of the embodiment provides an AC/DC adapter connection for use as a lamp.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION

The invention relates to polygon sphere casing for a laser pattern projection lamp toy system. In view of the prior art, the present invention provides a unique system toy that allows the user to project the laser pattern simply by the intrinsic body utility of the toy as an entertaining polygon sphere.

DETAIL DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Referring to FIG. 1 at 100 is a foldable diagram of a truncated rhombic dodecahedron for diagramming the location of parts for the embodiment. The top is defined at 200 for reference. At 500 is a single pole single throw (SPST) push button switch for the embodiment. At 300 is the laser port output diffraction grating. At 400 is optionally an AC/DC power jack. At 600 is optionally a heat sink for voltage regulation as well as a captivating decoration to the embodiment form.

Referring to FIG. 2 at 100 is a three dimensional diagram of the embodiment. The top is defined at 200 and is in context with FIG. 1 at 200. At 500 is a single pole single throw (SPST) push button switch for the embodiment centered on the polygon. At 300 is the laser port diffraction grating output location. At 400 is optionally an AC/DC power jack. The location of the optional AC/DC power jack at 400 enables the user to rotate the truncated rhombic dodecahedron about the axis of the jack input to reposition the projection of the laser port diffraction grating at 300 as a prerogative of the user for vertical, horizontal and close to 45 degrees. The polygons which construct the truncated rhombic dodecahedron at 100 enable the embodiment to rotate and stand stationary. Optionally the embodiment could be constructed with a sphere with dimples to enable rotation and stand stationary. The truncated rhombic dodecahedron is used an implementation as it is quite easy to manufacture and is visually entertaining as a toy system.

Referring to FIG. 3 at 100 is a circuit diagram that uses a voltage regulator. At 110 is the power supply input. At 120 is a single throw single poll (SPST) push button switch. At 130 is a voltage regulator and at 140 is the laser diode module. One skilled in the area can see that the circuit design can be used to create the embodiment. At 200 is an alternate circuit which uses a direct power supply such as a battery pack at 210 which is connected to a single throw single poll push button switch (SPST) at 220 which provides power to the laser diode module at 240.

Referring to FIG. 4 for completeness to teach how a laser pattern is created at 100 is a laser diode module with laser output beam at 110. At 120 is a transmission diffraction grating that is incident with laser beam at 110. Referring to FIG. 4 at 300 a matrix diffraction grating is produced and diagrammed by FIG. 2 at 300 used by the embodiment.
